"Could I? Sure!" Winter enjoyed the light tickling of the wobbling
bubble against his back as the bubble jigled under him. "I hope I
can meet Ruby on better terms than last time. I think I'll enjoy
living here." He giggled again at the tickling as he spoke, as it
hadn't stopped wobbling.
“Yeah!” Emerald nodded enthusiastically. He leaned in and booped
him on the nose. He was giggling happily as he laid on his friend.
“Ah Winter...I’m so happy you’re here...I cannot wait to take you
exploring...” He held onto him, deliriously happy
"I can't wait to see the other regions! A leafeon spoke to me
before now. She was really pretty, covered in pink flowers, but I
don't think a Leafeon would live on this part of the island."
Winter kind of wanted to see the leafeon again, she seemed nice,
and it reminded him of the fact that the island had four regions.
“Ah! You met Chiaki!” Emerald said happily. “She’s one of the
leaders of the four regions, namely Seishun! The spring region.” He
said. “She’s the newest leader but she’s doing well!” He said
happily. “She’s been pretty busy recently though...” Even Chiaki
had kept him in the dark of the things going on in the Ernte and
Reluciente regions. All he knew was the weather incident a days
before
"I should guess. She looked to important to be just an ordinary
leafeon. But, I wouldn't be opposed to going with you to find out
about the other regions." Winter wanted to go exploring and
adventuring with his friends again. Though it might not be all the
same without Zora and his sister, he enjoyed the idea of events
happening more voluntarily.
“Yeah sure!” He nodded. “But what I really wanted to do tonight is
dedicate my time to you.” Emerald said earnestly. He had just met
his friend after so long...he really wanted to catch up and play
with him
"Okay! Then let's not spend all the time on the bubble." He slid
off, wanting to try something else while he was here. Maybe ice
skating? Or maybe he could practice making auroras? Apparently he
could do that, and he wanted to try that sometime.
He nodded. “Well, ice skating on the lake’s pretty popular
here...Skiing also? Sometimes celebrities come up here to do meet
and greets too!” Emerald said happily. He may have lived in the
Seishun region but due to the fact he was travelling a lot, he knew
a lot about every region
"Celebrities? Like who? Zacian?" Of course that was his first
guess. He'd always looked up to the wolf legendary of the Galar
region, and wanted to meet them, to impress them somehow. The
dragon slayer, like he wanted to be!
“Zacian?” Emerald paused for a moment, a little taken off guard by
the answer. “It’s usually legendaries who appeared in movies and
such, they even offer to dress up as the character they play. And
sometimes, they even offer a replica of their costume to them!”
Emerald’s eyes sparkled when he said that
"I'm talking The Dragon Slayer'! The comic that became a movie. His
cape was awesome and his sword was rainbowy and....I'm fangirling.
I wanna meet them!" That movie had been his favorite all through
childhood, and he would love to meet the acters.
“Remind me what pokemon it was...? An Alolan Ninetales, right?”
Emerald said slowly as he looked at him. He really was enjoying
this conversation. “What’s their costume like?” He asked. Maybe he
could also get in on the action
"Nope. That was a Zacian.The Alolan ninetales was his apprentice.
The apprentice's costume was a dark blue scarf and a rainbow blade
that Zacian gave them. The Zacian had a golded cape and his normal
blade with rainbow gems embedded into it. His wing armor was also
really shiny!" Winter glanced over the mountains of snow, wondering
if they could dash off soon.
“Oh wow...” Emerald’s eyes glittered. “That sounds amazing...” He
genuinely felt awed at Winter’s description. He waited to see if
Winter had more to say before he told his own
Winter looked at Emerald. He looked as if he wanted to say
something, so he stayed silent, urging him to say what he wanted to
say, as he was hoping for interesting ideas from the unexpected
long time friend.
“Oh...Ok! Here’s mine!” Emerald said. “The Caped Ranger...giant red
flowing cape, black mask and black jumpsuit, blue gloves. He can
shape his aura into a greatsword!” It was apparent that the pokemon
he was describing was a Lucario. “He goes around saving others!
While discovering secrets!”
"Oh cool! Maybe we can meet them both! How cool would that be?" He
breathed an icy wind through his cape, causing it to flow
semi-dramatically, looking sort of like the movies, just a lot less
dramatic. He wanted to be an actual hero one day, though, rising
from the underdog to the legend of his time.
“If we check the schedules, maybe we can meet ‘em!” Emerald said
happily, as he grinned at Winter’s attempt to get his cape
flapping. He would love to meet them both, though he was admittedly
shy about meeting celebrities
"Then let's do that!" Winter looked around wildly, as if asking
'which way?' Meeting Zacian may be one of the best things to ever
happen to him. He obsessed over that guy, and wanted to talk
to him, to be noticed for a second, if not longer...
